THE PROBLEM OF TEXTBOOKS AS ONE OF CONCERNS OF BANAT INTELLECTUALS IN THE LATE NINETEENTH CENTURY AND EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY

Summary/Abstract: In the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century, Arad was an important cultural centre where a number of teachers who implemented the principles of modern pedagogy worked. Bishops John Meţianu and John Pap have encouraged the publication of textbooks. Teachers Joseph Moldovan, John Roman, Peter Vancu, Julius Julius Grofşoreanu Vuia supported the national character of pedagogy in their work. The printing-office of the Eparchy in Arad published thousands of textbooks that have been used in schools in the eparchy of Arad. The work of teachers in Romanian villages contributed to the development of national awareness despite the measures of Hungarization taken by the authorities.
